Ron is a guest? WTF!

[Night Strike]

People miss Ron? Could have fooled me.

Maybe it was this one?

Unlikely, that post is 3 days old, if they were going to take exception to it then the Mods would have banned him there and then on the same day.

The admins don't usually work on the weekends, so you can't expect them to immediately ban someone on then for a post that breaks the guidelines. The mods couldn't give him the appropriate ban b/c they don't have access to 1 month bans.

Simple, don't flame and don't get banned - not a hard policy to follow.

1 flame = 30 days? Do you agree with that nagerous?

I think it was more than one flame, ronc made a flame in the cheating and abuse thread and also flamed me in his other thread... That and he also has a history of making flames out of flame wars, I do not have the time to count them all but I think it would be misleading to say ronc made one flame and instantly received a 30 day ban. In fact I thought he had already received a 30 day for his racism towards owenshooter so shouldn't he be on a perma now?!

You seem far too comfortable about another poster having their forum rights (+ pming ability, viewing profiles...) taken away on the whim of an admin with effectively no recourse.

'Shouldn't he be on a perma now?!'


I would say, as a pretty good rule of thumb, if neither I, nor you, nor anyone else in this thread has any idea what Ron is supposed to have done to get a 30 day ban, then he probably didn't do anything to deserve it. I think we'd know if he'd done something REALLY BAD right?

It seems that you've accepted the validity of a banning system which very few other regular posters here agree with.

Why?

In my view it is a complete nonesense to ban a paying customer of this site for 30 days when he has obviously not done anything (at least recently) to deserve such a harsh punishment. It is frankly not good enough for you to write (effectively) that 'we have this system so he got a 30 day ban' unless you are prepared to state that you are in complete agreement with the current escalating system.

So, are you?

You can play around with my words as much as you want and no I don't agree with the escalating system. In fact I am pretty anti the whole escalating banning system and have made many posts evidencing this if you wish to search hard my 6000 posts here, I'm sure you will find plenty where I make my feelings quite clear. I however believe that the character in question here is not just your average witty poster like Dancing Mustard, who's ban was a complete travesty but he is more similar to Norse, who frankly deserved to be banned considering some of the stuff he used to write in the forums. Ronc has had many warnings.. and has done many things, I can't give you a list of all the things he has done but I do know some of his history and it isn't pleasant. Paying customer or not, if bans were not given out on occasion there would be anarchy. I know you're angry but so am I. We're no strangers to love, you know the rules and so do I. A full commitment's what I'm thinking of. You wouldn't get this from any other guy. I just wanna tell you how I'm feeling. Gotta make you understand. We've known each other for so long. Your heart's been aching, but you're too shy to say it. Inside we both know what's been going on. We know the game and we're gonna play it and if you ask me how I'm feeling don't tell me you're too blind to see. Never gonna give you up. Never gonna let you down. Never gonna run around and desert you. Never gonna make you cry. Never gonna say goodbye. Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you

I think you always know you've got a man beat when a 1980's one hit wonder invades his body to try and rescue the argument through the medium of a gut-buggeringly bad song.

Nag, are you there? Is Rick still inside you? Speak to me Nag! Come back to us!!!!!
